Arriving in Bologna
Fioravanti Apartments - San Luca Suite & Genesis House, A pochi passi dalla stazione, vicino al cuore di Bologna is 4.9 km from Bologna Airport (BLQ), where the Marconi Express monorail runs to Bologna Centrale. Bologna Centrale station is about 0.8 km away, roughly a 10-minute walk. Bologna operates a ZTL limited-traffic zone in its historic centre, where cameras issue automatic fines to unauthorised vehicles. No parking is listed here, so check where to leave a car before driving into the centre. Italian cities charge a tourist tax (tassa di soggiorno) per person per night, collected by the property rather than included in the booking total; the rate depends on the city and the property's star rating, and many properties still take it in cash.
